FAQs
Is the Fairbanks Gilet waterproof?
It features a water-repellent finish that handles light rain, but it is not classified as fully waterproof.
Can I machine wash this gilet?
Please check the care label inside the garment. Generally, delicate or hand-wash cycles are preferred to protect the faux suede.
What is the best way to style this?
It works best layered over fitted long-sleeved tops, knit sweaters, or light flannel shirts.
Does the sizing run true to size?
Yes, it is designed for a standard fit, but consider sizing up if you intend to wear very thick, chunky knits underneath.
Is the material genuine leather?
No, the Fairbanks Gilet uses synthetic faux suede and faux shearling for a cruelty-free construction.
Troubleshooting
Water beads no longer forming on the surface
The water-repellent finish may have worn off; apply a garment-safe water-repellent spray designed for faux suede.
Faux shearling feels flattened
Gently shake the garment and use a soft-bristled garment brush to fluff up the synthetic fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This gilet is designed to be worn over layers. To ensure the longevity of the faux suede and shearling, avoid machine washing with abrasive materials. It is recommended to spot clean the exterior with a damp cloth if it encounters mud or dirt. Always air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the faux materials from stiffening. When storing, hang the gilet on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders.
